"It was a mess. There was no rhyme-it was no good,"
"I think it's great. It's smooth... A lot, lot more bicyclists now use the path."
"This project will not only spur the growth of the film and TV industry right here in New York," said EDC spokesperson Seth Schuster, "but is already delivering much-needed public realm improvements-like the wonderful, improved greenway-that New Yorkers can enjoy every day."
The city rerouted cyclists and pedestrians under an overpass that dips beneath the Manhattan Cruise Terminal to untangle a major choke point near West 54th Street. The newly smoothed stretch is part of a $350 million Pier 94 redevelopment tied to Sunset Pier 94 Studios, a film and TV campus scheduled to open by year-end. The redesign relieves roughly 7,000 daily riders on the Hudson River Greenway, the nation's busiest. The improvement is one of the first upgrades linked to the 2025 Greater Greenways master plan, which aims to expand and better connect the 506-mile car-free network.
